12:00p.m – Lunch and Learn with keynote speaker, Dub Poet D’Bi Young.
D’bi is an African-Jamaican-Tkarontonian dubpoet, monodramatist and Black-queer-feminist decolonial scholar, who is committed to embodying liberatory art practices that ritualise acts-of-emancipation from oppressions inflicted upon the people and the planet. The three-time Dora-award winning Canadian Poet of Honour, author of twelve plays, seven albums, and four collections of poetry, was recently celebrated as a Global Leader in Theatre and Performance by Arts Council England.
